    If you think you want to study something, I'd register soon as the fees go up quite a lot in September as funding is changing :( Means it won't be so accessible for people.

    Yawn.. I don't mind some social sciences but this is going over my head. I might have a nap instead :p

    yay! After much faffing around, i have just sent my assignment :) now the waiting begins... I have also organised the really annoying pile of the boyfriends paperwork that I was waiting for him to sort, finding his usb connection for wireless laptop in the process (he was going crazy trying to find it for 2 days this week!) so I've proved that organisation means you don't lose things as much! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
